Some WaveBlaster fun on our day off (Warning: Guys riding a Purple PWC from '94) - The Hull Truth

I met up with some coworkers yesterday with my boat, my buddys wakeboard boat and my friend took my Waveblaster out. We barely get to use the Blaster since we are always on the boat. Whenever anyone rides it, they end up with a huge smile and sore muscles.

I had one of those and it was a awesome ride. Not a big heavy clunker like most PWC's. Ill give you some advise if you haven't already done it. Buy a pipe for that sucker. I don't remember the brand but it had twice the power with just a pipe change.

Yeah, I have ridden the new ones and I get bored on them quickly. They go fast and cut through the rough well, but they are boring. I have a boat if I wanna stay dry and just steer. With a Blaster, you are really riding it and leaning it over in turns and such.

only 8' long and 320lb vs most new "small" ones are 11'+ and over 700lbs

This blaster is totally stock, But I also have a 96 that has the dual carbs, pipe, head, ride plate, impeller and bars.
The engine blew, but I got another one for 400 bucks, so just gotta find the time to swap the parts and install. I haven't ever had them both in the water at once and have probably only ridden them a total of 20 times in 5 years, but they are well worth their price.

I gotta figure out a good way to tow it easily behind the boat, so I can use them much more.
